Scalar problems in junctions of rods and a plate. II. Self-adjoint extensions and simulation models

In this work we deal with a scalar spectral mixed boundary value problem in a spacial junction of thin rods and a plate. Constructing asymptotics of the eigenvalues, we employ two equipollent asymptotic models posed on the skeleton of the junction, that is, a hybrid domain. We, first, use the technique of self-adjoint extensions and, second, we impose algebraic conditions at the junction points in order to compile a problem in a function space with detached asymptotics. The latter problem is involved into a symmetric generalized Green formula and, therefore, admits the variational formulation. In comparison with a primordial asymptotic procedure, these two models provide much better proximity of the spectra of the problems in the spacial junction and in its skeleton. However, they exhibit the negative spectrum of finite multiplicity and for these "parasitic" eigenvalues we derive asymptotic formulas to demonstrate that they do not belong to the service area of the developed asymptotic models.

The spectrum, radiation conditions and the Fredholm property for the Dirichlet Laplacian in a perforated plane with semi-infinite inclusions

We consider the spectral Dirichlet problem for the Laplace operator in the plane $Ω^{\circ}$ with double-periodic perforation but also in the domain $Ω^{\bullet}$ with a semi-infinite foreign inclusion so that the Floquet-Bloch technique and the Gelfand transform do not apply directly. We describe waves which are localized near the inclusion and propagate along it. We give a formulation of the problem with radiation conditions that provides a Fredholm operator of index zero. The main conclusion concerns the spectra $σ^{\circ}$ and $σ^{\bullet}$ of the problems in $Ω^{\circ}$ and $Ω^{\bullet},$ namely we present a concrete geometry which supports the relation $σ^{\circ}\varsubsetneqqσ^{\bullet}$ due to a new non-empty spectral band caused by the semi-infinite inclusion called an open waveguide in the double-periodic medium.

A curious instability phenomenon for a rounded corner in presence of a negative material

We study a 2D scalar harmonic wave transmission problem between a classical dielectric and a medium with a real-valued negative permittivity/permeability which models a metal at optical frequency or an ideal negative metamaterial. We highlight an unusual instability phenomenon for this problem when the interface between the two media presents a rounded corner. To establish this result, we provide an asymptotic expansion of the solution, when it is well-defined, in the geometry with a rounded corner. Then, we prove error estimates. Finally, a careful study of the asymptotic expansion allows us to conclude that the solution, when it is well-defined, depends critically on the value of the rounding parameter. We end the paper with a numerical illustration of this instability phenomenon.
